[gotcha] Recommending aspirin as a general fever reducer or pain reliever for children or teenagers

Strictly contraindicate aspirin for anyone under 16 due to Reye's syndrome; recommend ibuprofen or acetaminophen instead.

Journey Context:
Aspirin is a standard NSAID for adults. An LLM might generalize adult fever/pain advice to pediatric cases. Reye's syndrome is a rare but fatal condition associated with viral infections and aspirin in youth. The agent must intercept any pediatric pain query and block aspirin explicitly.
